1 May Christ, the Lord of Cana's feast,
who made the water wine,
be welcomed as the honoured guest,
our risen Master now confessed,
God's messenger and sign;
God's messenger and sign.

2 What God has joined, we hear him say,
let no-one tear apart!
With his two servants here today
may Christ's own love for ever stay,
true bond of mind and heart;
true bond of mind and heart.

3 Whatever joys or sorrows come,
may steadfastness be theirs!
God's truth and kindness grace their home,
his presence fill the humblest room,
his Spirit stir their prayers;
his Spirit stir their prayers.

4 With brightened eyes of faith we'll see
God's plan for them made plain:
so shall our hearts together be
uplifted in the Trinity
and echo the Amen;
and echo the Amen.
